Seclusion in the Entertainment Industry

The cost of "The Wandering Earth" is still increasing.

According to the current shooting progress, if you want to complete the production of this film, you may really have to wait until after October. With such a long shooting cycle, all costs are rising.

Initially, the total investment in this project was almost 300 million. Beidou Entertainment invested a total of 1.5 billion. Chen Hui brought 50 million in funds, and the remaining 100 million was provided by Chen Feng's Ping An Investment, Tailang Entertainment and Shushan Pictures jointly contributed, and there were also some scattered shares sold in the market, totaling only 10 to 20 million.

However, judging from current trends, this money...may not be enough!

Shooting a science fiction blockbuster is indeed a costly affair.

But this is actually normal. After all, science fiction films require huge investment in both shooting and post-production special effects.

In Chen Feng's dream world, the total investment in the film "The Wandering Earth" is at least three to four hundred million. Moreover, there are many other films with higher production costs than "The Wandering Earth", especially some foreign works. , some investments may be as high as billions, so as to ensure the quality of the film.

Of course, such a high investment requires a high box office to achieve profitability, otherwise it will suffer heavy losses.

Sometimes, the failure of a film can directly lead to the collapse of a large company. This phenomenon is not uncommon.

Therefore, the project "The Wandering Earth" is really challenging.

And the current "Wandering Earth" is actually very different from the "Wandering Earth" in Chen Feng's dream world, especially in terms of plot. Tian Ming adjusted a lot of content with him, and also added more content by the way. There are many big sci-fi scenes, so the shooting cost still needs to increase.

Fortunately, the box office share of "Infernal Affairs" has been received, and Chen Feng now has hundreds of millions more funds on his hands.

After investing another 100 million in "The Wandering Earth", Chen Feng has now invested a total of 130 million, almost the same as Beidou Entertainment, and the total investment in "The Wandering Earth" has also reached 420 million. !

This number is huge and scary. It is really rare in the Chinese-language film market in this world.

And when the news was reported, many people in the film industry also raised eyebrows.

Many people believe that this film jointly invested by Beidou Entertainment and Chen Feng,

The risk is too great.

When the film project was first approved, many people in the industry were not optimistic about the film because of the casting of new young actors and a new director. Although Chen Hui later took the initiative to join the film, many people shut their mouths. But in the hearts of these people, they are still not optimistic about "The Wandering Earth".

After all, the Chinese film market does not have the soil to produce science fiction films. It is a bit... irrational to blindly start such a large-investment project.

Even though Chen Feng has successfully invested in two films in a row, anyone can fail, and Chen Feng is no exception.

He is not a god, and he cannot predict the future!

Many people are even looking forward to seeing Chen Feng's jokes.

Because Chen Feng has been so popular in the past year or two, he can succeed in anything and earn a lot of profits. This kind of operation has made countless people crazy and jealous.

Everyone was waiting for the day when Chen Feng finally fell.

Especially some people in the circle, although they were polite to Chen Fengke on the surface, in fact, they wished that he would be unlucky soon.

For example...the Golden Film Awards and Golden Melody Awards in March this year.

Because Chen Feng has been busy on the set, he did not attend these two grand award ceremonies.

Even though he had won awards in music and movies, Chen Feng did not show up. The music awards were received by Tailang Entertainment for him, while the film awards were received by Ni Hao.

In fact, Ni Hao should have been the one to receive the award. He was an investor and had nothing to do with receiving the award.

But people in the industry don’t see it that way.

At least when "Crazy Stone" won the best movie of the year, Chen Feng should have appeared on stage with Ni Hao. After all, everyone in the industry knew that both Chen Feng and Ni Hao were very important for this film to be born. Not even one.

So... Chen Feng didn't show up in the end, which made the judges very unhappy.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, many people felt that Chen Feng was too aloof, too cold, too ignorant of the world, and too disrespectful to everyone.

Even if Chen Feng has entrusted Ni Hao to give his acceptance speech, even if Chen Feng really has something urgent to deal with on the crew of "The Wandering Earth"...

No matter what, many people already have opinions on Chen Feng.

Of course, it is impossible for Chen Feng to know what others think, and even if he knows what others think, there is nothing he can do about it.

After all...the crew's business is the real business. If you care too much about other people's opinions, your life will be very tiring.

Therefore, he once again joined the crew of "The Wandering Earth".

He doesn't need to spend too much time dealing with interpersonal relationships with some irrelevant people. What he needs most is to make a good movie first.

…

Chen Feng's actions undoubtedly made many people very angry.

After all, everyone is in the same circle. Sometimes, you don't know what you did to offend the other person, and you may even be resented.

If you are a person with a relatively generous mind, you may laugh at some trivial matters and not take it to heart.

But in this world, there are more people with small belly and chicken intestines.

Therefore, when Chen Feng increased his investment in "The Wandering Earth", many people looked at him with disdain.

…

"Haha, 100 million yuan is invested in such a film. I think Chen Feng also has money and nowhere to spend it..."

"Yes, people do have money and nowhere to spend it. What can you do? Haha, they don't even pay attention to the Golden Film Award. So what if it's 100 million?"

"Do you really think he can succeed this time?"

"I don't think so. In fact, I think he might be in trouble this time..."

"I heard that they invited a foreign team? Or is it from Haolaiwu?"

"Fucking Hao Lai Wu, that's just a small, broken company that was kicked out by Hao Lai Wu. Just like this, it still has to spend a lot of money to support other people's teams. It's really a big mistake!"

"It's okay... This is good. If people can make money, they must also be able to spend money. Haha, let's just watch and see how long he can run rampant!"

…

Some people have been very unkind in their evaluation of Chen Feng in private. Although these people don't dare to express their opinions publicly, they secretly make all kinds of mocking remarks, even if they have nothing to do with Chen Feng. What impact, but at least they themselves had fun talking.

Well, I can only let them go.

…

s: Kobe Bryant passed away unexpectedly. I have been confused for a whole day and it is a bit hard to accept.
